Hello lovelies! Firstly, I'm sorry I've been MIA for a long time now. Hate being away from the blogosphere but I'm finally back with an outfit post I've been meaning to do forever. I've been in a 90's phase lately with mom jeans, crop tops, chokers and brown lipstick dominating my recent looks. Today's post is a 90's spin to a modern look. I've paired a white boxy crop top with black distressed denims and gave the monochrome look a pop of colour with bright red heels and thrown in some 90's elements with the half ponytail hairstyle and a silver choker. Minimal yet playful and edgy. Read on for more pictures, outfit details and links to shop them. Photos by: John Paul. Follow him :) Instagram - johnj2410. Snapchat - johnjpaul.
Remember when Palazzos were all the rage a few years ago? Well, now it's all about the culottes. Yep. The shorter cousin of the palazzo pants. You can either love em' or hate em' you can't ignore em'. They may not be everyone's cuppa but I personally love it. They're perfect for work or play and look great both dressed up or casual.
Today I'm wearing burnt orange culottes paired with a navy star print tank, an olive/brown biker jacket and black fringe heels.
The pictures have been shot by my talented lil' brother John. Let's show him some love by following him on instagram @johnj2410 :)
Merry Christmas lovelies! Hope you all had a blessed one filled with love, light and warmth! x Christmas is undoubtedly the most amazing time of the year. Not to mention all the parties, gift exchanges, church mass, dinners, brunches... the list goes on! Today's post is about what I wore to one such Christmas Gala. It was a formal event where everyone was needed to be dressed to the nines! I wore a cherry red pleated gown and paired it with a turquoise and gold statement necklace. The two colours complimented each other so beautifully. Read on for outfit and makeup details.
One of the biggest fashion events in the Middle East, Fashion Forward recently concluded it's 6th season which was held at Madinat Jumeirah from 22nd to 25th October 2015. With a string of fashion shows, industry talks, presentations, social events and parties, this season was as usual, packed with the who's who of the fashion industry and enthusiasts.
In it's own words, Fashion Forward (FFWD) aims to be the definitive fashion platform for the Middle East – a fashion movement that highlights strengths, inspires and nurtures industry growth and its wealth of talent, with the ultimate goal of driving forward the entire fashion industry in the region.
I attended Day 1 and Day 2 of the event, catching a couple of shows by new as well as established designers and was thoroughly impressed by their sheer display of amazing talent!

Hussein Bazaza's SS’16 is inspired by the Persian culture, architecture and arts. The story behind the collection is about The Princess Mithra, who survived after nuclear bomb explosion created by King of Persia and how she lived through the rise of the nature after the explosion.
Michael Cinco

Extravagant, voluminous, lacy and sparkly in all its glory is exactly what Michael Cinco's designs are known for. The collection inspired by Gothic churches and its breathtaking stained glass windows. The show stopper piece was absolutely mesmerizing! Although, the black cocktails dresses were slightly lacklustre, the overall collection more than made up for it.
DAY 2:
What I Wore:
Top: Zara // Skirt: Topshop // Jacket: H&M // Bag: Aldo // Shoes: New Look
I only attended FFWD day 2 for a short while and skipped day 3 since i had prior commitments. I look forward to what the next season has in store for us in April next year.
